Fainting First Aid Awareness

Fainting is common and usually harmless, but it can sometimes be a sign of something more serious, and falls during a faint can cause injury. Learn the warning signs, what to do if you or someone else feels faint, how to help someone who has fainted, and when to call 999.

This course provides first aid awareness only. It does not replace practical, hands-on first aid training from a qualified provider, does not make you a qualified first aider and does not meet workplace first aid training requirements on its own. Always call 999 (or 112) in an emergency and follow your organisation’s procedures.
